Die Eng­lish-Plus-AG am HJK

The cour­se aims to pro­vi­de oppor­tu­ni­ties for con­ver­sa­ti­on and dia­lo­gue for pupils of year 9. Stu­dents impro­ve their lan­guage skills through working on varied and cur­rent topics of spe­cial inte­rest to them.

The cour­se is held once a week from 13.40 to 15.00. Regis­tra­ti­on forms are available from your Eng­lish tea­cher.

Pupils explain the cour­se

We learn (for exam­p­le)…

  • to talk about various topics
  • to ana­ly­se movies and songs
  • to wri­te and act out plots
  • to work with dic­tio­n­a­ries

We…

  • are not rest­ric­ted to (school) books
  • can choo­se the topics
  • can talk wit­hout get­ting mark­ed
  • can play word games
